Churchboy Confessions
Hosted by Emmanuel Iheke Jr, “Churchboy Confessions” engages young adults with a series of monologues and conversations communicating God’s Word with the utmost vulnerability. For many, the churchboy/churchgirl archetype represents someone who has it all together. But the reality is that we’ve all sinned and fallen short, and we don’t get better by avoiding conviction and hard conversations. Instead, we have to have them. Join Emmanuel and the UN-ASSOCIATED family to discuss the real struggles and challenges that accompany the faith walk and how Jesus is the answer to them all. New episodes on Mondays.

I graduated, and it's great! But the fact that I don't know what will happen next makes me scared straight. A lot of us are entering the sea of adulthood without a life jacket. That can make you want to just crawl back into your comfort zone. What do we do now? (Please share this episode with someone you believe needs to hear it.)

Judgmental and Hypocritical Christians have become the infamous gatekeepers of Christianity, turning people away from a relationship with Jesus with their tendency to make people feel like crap.
